Encourage your child to include someone new at lunch or recess. Inclusion is courage disguised as kindness.
Veterans Day — thank a veteran together and discuss what service means.
Ask your child, “Who made your day better today?” Gratitude spreads fast when named.
Share something you learned from a mistake. It normalizes failure and models resilience.
Read aloud — even to big kids. Shared stories create common ground.
Some kids dream of being YouTubers. Help your child understand what’s private and what’s not. Get conversation starters at Parent ProTech: https://app.parentprotech.com/1057/ware-county/en/signup?source=admin
Encourage your child to notice helpers at school — the custodian, nurse, bus driver — and say thanks.
Review hand-washing and healthy habits. Fewer germs, fewer absences.
We’re Weather-Ready! Students will practice tornado and storm safety drills this month. Remind your child to follow directions, stay quiet, and know their safe space inside the school.
Start a gratitude jar. Each family member adds one thankful note a day until Thanksgiving.
Celebrate the small stuff: Tell your child one thing they did this month that made you proud. End October on a high note.
Reminder: Lunchboxes do not self-clean. Check your child’s bag tonight. You might discover a science experiment growing in there.
Review trick-or-treat safety together: crosswalks only, group travel, check candy before eating.
Georgia weather often means cold mornings with warm afternoons. Send kids with a jacket they can stash in their bag.
End of month check: Look through your child’s phone for any new hidden apps (calculator vaults, disguised folders).
School stress builds this time of year. Ask your child: “Is anything weighing on you right now?” and just listen.
Parents, if you’re sneaking candy from the Halloween stash, at least be strategic. Rotate the bag so no one notices. Oop!
